Auras & Astigmatism?

I've worn glasses since I was around nine-years-old. My “vision” has gotten a little “worse” since then, but my astigmatism has gotten a lot “worse.”So, what's with all of the quotation marks you might ask. Well, once upon a time a long time ago some German dude did this study and came up with a “norm” for “vision” based on a bunch of folks' “normal” vision. Then some other people added to those studies until now you have a “Visual Acuity Measurement Standard” that was created by the International Council of Ophthalmology in 1984.I'm sure the scientists over at the ICO had a lot of great ideas and studies to reference when creating the VAMS, but I'm also pretty sure that they didn't have all of the great ideas and studies. If I think about it long enough, I'm not even sure I can rationalize the idea that the entire framework for understanding “normal” human vision was created by some German dude in the 19th century. Please excuse my tendency for insensitive humor, but is that sort of like Genesis 1:20-20, where some holy white male omniscient entity “created woman?”Eyeballs do all sorts of amazing things, like change light into nerve signals. Anyway, when I'm not wearing my glasses, I see auras extremely well, especially out of my left astigmatic eye. If you research techniques on how to see auras, you find that “blurring” of the vision helps one to see auras—energy—better. I also see contrasts of light much better without my glasses so that if a drop of life-energy is coming through, everything else looks much dimmer and darker.With astigmatism, the eyeball has a different shape than “normal” eyeballs and—refractions of light—also enter the eyeball differently. However, a whole whole lot of people have some form of astigmatism. In fact, a bunch of people are regularly told that they need to have their “vision corrected” for many different reasons. You know, because our entire human basis of social reality is based on signs and things that are best seen with 20/20 vision.

Even genetic theories about eye colors are far more complex than once thought. In 2011, The Queensland Institute of Medical Research was “the first to prove conclusively that there is no single gene for eye colour.” In other words, blue-eyed Mommy and blue-eye Daddy can sometimes have brown-eyed baby. Eye genetics are so elaborate that all parent-baby combos are possible.It really makes me wonder: what if that German dude got it wrong too? Or, what if by correcting things like different visions or different behaviors (like ADHD), we are effectively slowing down the spiritual growth of humankind? Since other living things often see things so differently than humans, which one best represents “reality?” How has artificial light altered human vision, and what would happen if we all started trying to see auras—instead of signs—better?I don't know the answer to any of these questions, but I do know that I love my astigmatism. Perhaps, like Kuhn's Theory of Paradigm shifts, Ophthalmology will be the next area of science to get as amazingly bizarre as Quantum Physics.If you wear glasses, take them off regularly and take a different look at reality. You might like the energies you “see.”
